Mediatek love to release new chipsets, it’s probably a monthly affair, sometimes it feels like it is weekly. To achieve such a technological feat, they have to cut a few corners here and there. They have genuinely launched some impressive chipsets this year, some of which could offer serious competition to Qualcomm. However, to achieve…

MediaTek Dimensity 820 goes official with a significant boost to CPU frequencies vs Dimensity 800

As expected, today MediaTek announced the Dimensity 820. The previous leaks have been confirmed; this new chipset offers a significant CPU boost taking the four Arm Coretex A76 cores up to 2.6Ghz. This represents a 30% boost in frequencies which eclipses the improvements Qualcomm made to their SD765G when they revamped it as the SD768G….

[Update] This is now official and better than expected with a GPU boost too I have given MediaTek a lot of grief for their relentless and pointless chipset launches the past few months.

MediaTek Helio G85 vs Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 vs Snapdragon 675 vs SD 712 vs SD 720G Specifications & Benchmarks

With the launch of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9, I wrote a scathing comparison of the new MediaTek Helio G85 with its pitiful 50Mhz difference in GPU frequencies compared to the existing, unimpressive, Helio G80. If we ignore my belief that the MediaTek Helio G85 is just a marketing stunt by announcing a brand-new chipset…

MediaTek Helio G85 vs G70 vs G80 vs G90T Specifications Compared & Benchmarks – Another dud from MediaTek with the same specification as the G80

[Updated] I originally reported that the G85 was identical to the G80. This was wrong. The G85 has a slightly tweaked GPU going up to 1000MHz (a 50MHz increase). Mediatek has launched yet another chipset which will feature in the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9. It is starting to feel like they just come up with…

MediaTek Helio G90t, G70, P95 & other delisted from PCMark for cheating by identifying benchmarks & boosting performance

Synthetic benchmarks are not the best indicator of true to life performance at the best of times. MediaTek is the latest company to fall foul of the rules by coding a sports mode into the firmware files that assign a boost to the phone’s performance when it detects many popular benchmarks. They are not the…
